you had an honest clue, would i lie to you?
you keep your 30 silvers, cause bitch i know the truth
who made the brew? they be stirring up these coups-
when steam’s wafting up, ya’ll need to let me through.
hey! maybe i feel good and so i’m boasting,
but they came to watch ya get roasted,
and anything is better when it’s toasted!
crossing your frame like you lost it,
crying over whatever / cost / is;
you already knew.
went and showed your colors and we all seen the hue,
standing all in stitches but nobody tryna sew, and
out here, hand out, reaching for our glue?
nah.
we deal with them root-less
cause they be smiling in ya face, but they just fuckin’ users
smiling in ya face
ok. you don’t listen good, so, let me pull a pen out
call back to my memory like, thank you for the layout
i was squinting at the patterns, now i see them miles out.
been careful with my energy and quick to call a time-out
pulling, i keep pulling,
why my rope still in your hands?
no amends at my expense-
go be and be a better man
cause i got hands you can catch
and nothing you can match-
why not take all of my light
instead of settling for half?
i’m root-less, when they be smilling in my face,
cause they just fuckin’ users,
ruthless, they see all this fuckin’ life and they try to loot us, losers
so we deal with them root-less
cause they be smiling in ya face but they just fuckin’ users
smiling in ya face, smiling in ya face
i said you don’t listen good, so let me pull a pen out
call back to my memory like, thank you for the layout
i was squinting at the patterns, now i see them miles out
I see them miles out, but i’m careful with my energy
why not take all of my light
instead of settling for half?
i’m root-less, when they be smilling in my face,
cause i’m careful with my energy

i’m the only one who knows
that you sleep with a pack of reds under your pillow
i’m the only one who knows
to see these patterns in the places your mind goes
i’m the only one who knows
what you’re chasing with the pills, holes you try to fill,
and why ya hands ain’t still when they stretch my way
and i’m the only one who knows
what your face looks like when it’s ((falling))
yeah & ain’t i still here?
ain’t i still here?
no wrong roads, i know where this goes
i lay myself at your feet, i’m made of stone
here i stay + i stay here
i’ve come when you call, i’ve kept it all
even when divine hands approach the wall,
here i stay + i stay here
i’m the only one who knows
you keep that faded green shirt,
& give up your turns,
when it’s a slowburn, cause you like it fast
i’m the only one who knows
how you rattle the bars
and seal up like tar
when you’re trapped.
& ain’t i still here?
ain’t i still here?
listen up, i’, telling you that i am (i am).
i’m the only one who knows,
and i still adore you.
- like shadows dance with the light, love,
we’ll be entwined for all of time -
no wrong roads, i know where this goes

wish for a shift in the season
even if i’m falling,
i’m still breathing
nearer now, i cling to my givens-
even if i’m never forgiven
did this place ever feel right?
farther now & back at my side
nearer now, i cling to my givens
even if i’m never forgiven
wish for a shift in the season-
stay above the, the water
(even if i’m never forgiven)
some bright morning,
when this all is over
i’ll find my place
wish for a shift in the season-
stay above the, the water
(even if i’m never forgiven)
even if i stay above the, the water

well, it’s been a hard everything but harder’s been had,
so i can’t justify how slow i drag,
but even if i’m moving slow, i’m moving close
reaching for your warmth, for another dose
you can be so far to find
you can be so far to find
cause so much fades with time
the distance it falls in line
so now you ain’t nowhere close
but i never wanted you more than i do right now
i still catch your ghost
and i never wanted you more than i do right now
you can be so far to find
kicking off from the sand, suspended, is when i drift to you
salt may burn my eyes but can’t clear my mind of you
so i keep myself laced, to mirror your grace
found your whole face, here in my place
so much warred in you- if i’m what you bore,
is this my core, too?
i don’t rest how i need to.
working for the late, to pay my dues.
fortune’s flashing me near views.
sometimes i’d just rather be near you.
and now,
you ain’t nowhere close
but i never wanted you more than i do right now
i still catch your ghost
and i never wanted you more than i do right now
cause you ain’t nowhere close
but i never wanted you more than i do right now
i still catch your ghost
and i never wanted you more than i do right now
cause you can be so far to find

Can’t let a young gyal grow without spitting up all of her tea!
why insist on the past? things grow, some snap. let me be.
i knocked a self down, finding forms, now- can you see?
i’m tryna shape the debris. things grow, some snap, let me be.
you weren’t there, weren’t witness,
to how i bit in, but you already a critic
you weren’t there, weren’t witness,
to how i did it, how i’m pushing at my limits
i don’t deal no replays,
i don’t walk back that ways,
it’s only forward stray, ever forward i straying
cause you knew what i /was/
you knew what i /was/
i won’t apologize, i got here just because,
that’s gonna stay the way i /was/
you knew what i /was/
if you don’t know me (right now)
& you had the chance to taste, spit away,
keep my name out your mouth!
& you can praise down every false god on your shelves,
you let me breath, for my health,
let me be someone else-
let me swell.
cause that’s the way i /was/
you knew what i /was/
i ain’t going back, i got here just because!
that’s the way i /was/
you knew what i /was/
i won’t deal no replays ,
i don’t walk back that ways,
only forward i stray,
it’s only forward i stray
